Our Mission

To empower Sealth learners to be of value to themselves and to others
Today and Tomorrow

Welcome to Chief Sealth High School

Chief Sealth is a comprehensive high school that offers a wide array of opportunities for students who value learning in a dynamic, multi-cultural environment. As a center of international educational excellence, we provide students opportunities to study the world both in the classroom and beyond. Our academic and arts offerings, our career preparation, and our athletic programs focus on educating global citizens.

Students who attend Chief Sealth value the openness of the school community, and the opportunity to participate in a wide range of academic, athletic, arts and club activities, which connect their high school experience to what is important in their lives.

One of the cornerstones of this internationalism is our rich cultural diversity, and our interest in multiple approaches to knowledge. This multiculturalism finds expression in a wide range of offerings including our mariachi band, world language classes including Spanish, Japanese, and Mandarin Chinese, exchange programs to China and Guatemala in addition to our International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Program.

Maintain contact with the school: I challenge parents to volunteer at school, attend school activities, and athletic events; communicate with teachers through the Source, email, or telephone.
